Funny you mention this point!
I just spent 30-45 minutes on the phone talking to Jens about this very issue. Jens states he can map the model in to 2.5. and will give it a fling in a bit. This issue is a must; however, I had given up on the idea until 2.7. However, the issues he and I addressed, in combination to your request jive in sync.
Cheers,
